YouTube Channel Verification

Yeah but when I did that it verified my name

There is no check mark next to your name.

Name verification is used by big channels / companies /celebrities to prove that it really is them and the procedure is explained in the link I provided in my previous post.

The procedure you described is phone verification which is totally unrelated and is used to prove the account isn't a spam account and unlocks various features like longer videos, custom thumbs etc.

Well sorry, I just read it wrong.
 
I thought it was something like, you have to have your own .com website, and link that up in order to get a verified checkmark on your channel?
 
You need to become a YouTube partner and enable monetization, and make it so you can make longer than 15 minute videos. Go to YouTube settings, view additional features which is located near the bottom of the page. Enable monetization and longer videos; when you enable these, you will need to insert your phone number so they can contact you the "code." This pretty much verifies your account and makes you a YouTube partner.
Yeah mate, thats not going to give you that channel verification tick.[DOUBLEPOST=1386280328,1386280292][/DOUBLEPOST]

Nope I dont think its that, cause google gives you a code that you got to paste onto your website.. Even if you have a blogger you can paste the code.
 
The only way you can request verification is thru your partner manager... that is if you have one, which isn't likely haha.

Your network can help (if they wanted to) verify your channel if you are a reasonable sized channel.
